  1. Yes, you can do you blood test for many and bring results to civil surgeon. However, it may be more expensive than getting vaccine itself again. Most of vaccines are safe to get again if you don't have records. If you already have immunity, vaccine won't do anything, because your body knows how to handle the virus. Vaccines typically have deactivated virus that is not harmful anyway. Many vaccines won't be given to you after certain age. Civil surgeon can analyse it on spot and give you everything necessary on the day of exam.
  2. Just upload evidence online. It may or may not be considered, but doesn't hurt
  3. You got everything and more. Just don't forget to bring your smile for the photo picturing the great moment!
  4. We can find many reasons why people who theoretically can qualify using I-864 get issues using them in practice. Subjectively, by observing VJ posts for a while I can conclude that pursuing joint sponsor may be a path of least resistance, otherwise we wouldn't see this many posts of applicants struggling with I-864 when using assets. We can give a green light to somebody who appears to qualify to only find later they lost 3-6 months dealing with RFEs or NOIDs based on intricate technicalities. Adjudicators selectively close eyes in one set of cases and are super maticulous in other cases when it comes to using assets. When something works half of the time, my recommendation is to pick something more robust. In marriage, we can choose the other half. We can date, chat, live together and learn about the person before committing. We cannot pick adjudicator who decides whether I-864 with assets is accepted, so I wouldn't compare it
  5. Everything is technically allowed, even filing I-864 with 0 income and no assets. But why would anybody do it. Same with primary residence
  6. Absolutely normal. 3 months is nothing
  7. Please share the details once you get the letter.
  8. The thing is, officer isn't a friend. I gave absolute "robotic" answers, giving bare minimum but to the point, and it wasn't an issue. My docs and evidence told the story. I thought of it as if it was a DMV or SSA appointment. I don't tell how I got my first car and how many miles I drove when renewing license. I came to USCIS for immigration benefit, not chat
  9. This is a natural thing to do, but can harm some applicants. I did my adjustment with a lawyer, and recommendation was to give short answers, stories was a big no-no. So the question how we met was answered in a short sentence: "we met at a conference". And this was enough and satisfactory. The problem with stories: 1) Officer doesn't have time to listen 2) When they do, they may use details against you! Or ask to elaborate on each point So unless they ask for long answer, general advice is to keep things short!
  10. Actually, this is smart. There's been instances when USCIS asked to browse petitioner's and beneficiary's phones at the interview in search of images, text etc that could harm the case
  11. It is just a proposal. If you apply now, most likely rules won't change mid process and you'd be grandfathered into current rules
  12. Return transcript. You can upload them to your N-400 case. I did that. Was never asked for transcripts at the interview, but had printed copies just in case
  13. I thought one can file early if divorce is finalized before I-751 filing deadline? Even if allowed to file now, I'd probably wait until dealine if divorce is not near completion. I wouldn't want to get RFE early personally. In states like California, separation is 6 months before couple can proceed with divorce.
  14. I'm not convinced you have a case for NIW, unfortunately. Especially if you don't know yourself what the endavor is. Depending on your country of birth, DV lottery may be an option to try.
  15. There's few people I know on E-2 employee visa, in their 20s. It's doable, but I'd say the chances get better with at least 5+ years of experience in the field
  16. It's possible. Most of the times, though, decision is already made before the interview.
  17. He could be trying to get E-2 as an essential employee, not investor. But it's hard (almost impossible) to pull off being a fresh colleague graduate, assuming OP got degree.
  18. E-2 is not just for investors. There's also essential employee category within this visa type. If OP is vital for business, for example posesses rare skills that cannot be found in the US, he doesn't need to invest millions.
  19. MM/YYYY: September 2025 Location: Hawaii, US Business / organization: Hotel Check type: Identity verification Reason: Checking in Result: Success Details: Used to check in to hotel I'm staying at for conference.
